According to http://drjamesthompson.blogspot.de/2013/12/the-7-tribes-of-intellect.html … you need to be in the upper 5% of iq to calculate the cost of carpeting a room.
@emareaf That claim. I'd think at a bare minimum the upper 25% can be taught to do dimensional analysis reliably.

@St_Rev For a rectangular room it's just the multiplication of 3 numbers. I would've expected the majority of the population to grasp this. -
@emareaf ...but not two standard deviations hard, I don't think. -
@St_Rev It's definitively not 2 stddev, but if it is 1 stddev then I have been underestimating the iq of quite a lot of people.
